DWF 10th Anniversary Party Sponsored by ProDPI
We're taking over BB King's Blues Club in downtown Nashville. Buffet dinner is provided, along with a 10 piece house band, and a live DJ and Jerry Ghionis promises to rock it out. For our 10th anniversary, you can bet your bacon this is going to be one hell of a blow-out, we've already got designated drivers lined up so you can party hard--but responsibly. :)

In-Depth Training--With Breaks!
A big departure from convention years past, we're moving to more in-depth training with some of the very best photographers in the world. You could pay well over $1600 for a 3-day with any one of them, instead we're offering intense training with the very best educators for a fraction of the cost.

Each class will be broken up with breaks lasting 30 minutes to 1.5 hours, giving you a chance to absorb the mountains of information you'll be presented with.

Mentoring Sessions
Always popular, the mentor sessions are your chance to get some one-on-one training, advice and support from a variety of accomplished photographers and top industry pros.

Imaging USA Tradeshow
Included with your DWF Convention registration is tickets and transportation to the Imaging USA tradeshow. Wander the floor and check out the latest and greatest in gear, gadgets, software and vendors.
